ISS date basically means the “Issue” Date of your ID or License.
The Issue date is the date when the document was officially issued or printed, and mailed to the holder by the issuing authority or DMV.
For the DL, it’s the date the license transaction was processed.
It signifies the starting point of the document’s validity and the date when it becomes usable as a form of identification.
In this post, we’ll show you what to put for ISS date on fake id and what NOT to. We will also briefly go over the expiration dates.

What To Put As Issue Date On Fake ID
You should put the ISS date as a week after your 21st birthday. But make sure it’s not over a month. One or two weeks is the best.
And make sure the date is not on a weekend because IDs are not processed on weekends.

Check your state rules to see if there are any other things like this.
